090321 Weekend flying

Postby twgonder » Fri Mar 20, 2009 2:54 pm

If the XC league gets cancelled this weekend I would be interested in flying other locations. Maybe Marshall? I haven't flown south of SB, so looking for those that know other sites (u can do an intro) and carpool. Cheers, Wade (831) five 8 eight 9 one 0 one, or email here with PM.

I got a call from Mark about flying Oak Mt. I think I'll go, care to share the ride? I think we need to leave the T at 9:45. I'll be there and offer to drive the big white diesel hog, which means 4 others go in comfort. Please call and let me know if you plan to come. (831) 5 eight 8 nine 1 zero 1.

Looks like the fog decided to extend to Fillmore. No go.

Open to other ideas.

OJ and I are eyeballing Bates. If the surface forecast for SB is right it could be one of those epic days.

Cort thought that Oak Mt was off, so he headed to Happy Valley and flew earlier with milder straight in winds. Wade joined him around 5:00 and got a 38 minute flight in 15-20 with gusts and additional 5 (Cort wisely sat and watched). Otherwise some decent ridge soaring. A very nice place to fly!
